The word “kerygma” is Greek for “the gospel” or “the good news.” KerygmaEncounter is a day spent with our loving God; Father, Son, and Spirit. The focus ofthis retreat is to bring you to a new encounter, both in mind and heart, with JesusChrist, in the power of the Holy Spirit, drawing closer into the heart of the Father.

Since Kerygma Encounter was developed in the Diocese of Lansing in 2015, more thanfifteen hundred committed Catholics around the state of Michigan have been formed

and transformed by the experience; including priests, deacons, and the Sisters ofMary Mother of the Eucharist. We've decided to bring it to the Diocese of Green Bay!
